Anthropic在周一提前提交了重要文件，以备首次公开报价，提供了财务和业务面临的风险的新细节。
根据备案情况，人工智能公司计划用计时符号ANT在Nasdaq上公开。 《华尔街日报》报导，S-1计划没有详细说明公司计划筹集多少资金或进行目标明确的估值；"纽约时报"8月报道称，它正寻求筹集超过1000亿美元，估值约为2万亿美元。
Anthropic在档案中写道，“我们鼓励你，作为我们股票的预期所有人，不要考虑以纯粹的交易条件购买你的股票。 我们希望，你将把它看作是成为伟大事业一部分的机会。”
2026年上半年，其收入从2025年的45亿美元增长到160多亿美元。 Claude制造者强调其成长的企业业务，指出过去12个月里超过11900客户至少花费了10万美元；超过1900美元花费了100万美元或更多；大约250客户花费了1000万美元或更多。
Anthropic虽然收入不断增长，但尚未实现盈利。 它在2026年上半年的净损失为8 070万美元，而去年同期的净损失为130亿美元。
虽然人们期望一家公司准确地报告其风险因素，但计划书还列出一份特别详尽的潜在商业难题清单，指出股票投资带有“高度风险 ”。
这些风险包括确保适当的计算能力、竞争对手实验室的激烈竞争、先进的人工智能系统的潜力以及“人类面临灾难性或生存风险 ”。
备案警告关于尖端AI可能被威胁行为者滥用到发布网络攻击和开发新型生物武器，或被专制政府监视其公民。 Anthropic也指出了它可能失去对其开发的AI模型的控制的风险。
这也凸显了政府行动的波动性，特别注意到特朗普政府决定将公司指定为供应链风险。
“虽然我们继续与政府机构合作，但我们不能肯定这些诉讼的解决不会对我们向政府机构和其他向美国政府出售产品和服务的客户出售的能力产生不利影响，进而对我们的业务、财政状况和业务结果产生不利影响。”
9月，Anthropic的对手OpenAI在夏天秘密地向IPO提交了它今年不打算公开的宣布，理由是对AI给人类带来的风险的关切。
Anthropic由OpenAI的7名前员工于2021年创立，据报道他们已经对实验室安全开发高级AI模型的能力失去了信心。 Anthropic本身市场高度安全意识；其首席执行官达里奥·阿莫代(Dario Amodei)多次评论AI可能消除几十个工作，并采取行动违背人类利益的风险。
这些档案还概述了Anthropic开发能加速科学发现、治疗疾病和刺激经济增长的精密AI模型的雄心。

Anthropic filed key paperwork on Monday ahead of a high-anticipated initial public offering, providing new details about its finances and the risks facing its business.
According to the filing, the artificial intelligence company plans to go public on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol ANT. The IPO could come later in November, The Wall Street Journal reported. The S-1 prospectus does not include details on how much the company plans to raise or its targeted valuation; The New York Times reported in August that it was looking to raise more than $100 billion with a valuation around $2 trillion.
“The advent of machine intelligence is one of the seminal moments in human history,” Anthropic wrote in the filing. “We encourage you, as a prospective owner of our stock, not to think of your purchase in purely transactional terms. We hope you will see it instead as an opportunity to be part of something greater.”
The paperwork offers a window into the company’s finances through the first half of 2026. Its revenue grew to more than $16 billion, up from about $4.5 billion in 2025. The Claude maker emphasized its growing enterprise business, noting that more than 11,900 customers spent at least $100,000 in the past twelve months; more than 1,900 spent $1 million or more; and roughly 250 customers spent $10 million or more.
Despite its growing revenue, Anthropic has yet to turn a profit. It posted a net loss of $80.7 million in the first half of 2026, compared to a net loss of $13 billion in the same period last year.
While it’s expected that a company accurately reports its risk factors, the prospectus also features a particularly thorough list of potential business quagmires, noting that investing in the stock carries “a high degree of risk.”
Those risks range from the ability to secure adequate compute to intense competition from rival labs to advanced AI systems’ potential to “pose catastrophic or existential risks to humanity.”
The filing warns about the possibility that sophisticated AI could be abused by threat actors to launch cyberattacks and develop novel biological weapons, or by authoritarian governments to surveil their citizens. Anthropic also pointed to the risk that it could lose control of the AI models it develops.
It also highlighted the volatility of government action, specifically noting the Trump Administration’s decision to designate the company as a supply-chain risk.
“While we continue to work with government agencies, we cannot be certain that the resolution of these lawsuits will not adversely affect our ability to sell to government agencies and other customers that sell products and services to the U.S. government, and in turn adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations,” the filing concluded.
In September, Anthropic’s rival OpenAI—which filed confidentially for IPO in the summer—announced that it no longer intended to go public this year, citing concerns over the risks posed to humanity by AI.
Anthropic was founded in 2021 by seven former employees of OpenAI, who had reportedly lost faith in the lab’s ability to develop advanced AI models safely. Anthropic markets itself as highly safety-conscious; its CEO, Dario Amodei, has repeatedly commented on the risk that AI could eliminate scores of jobs, and act against human interests.
The filings also outline Anthropic’s ambition to develop sophisticated AI models capable of accelerating scientific discovery, curing disease, and spurring economic growth.
“To build AI is to harness cognition itself, and anything so powerful can be used for ill as well as good,” the company wrote.
The company did not immediately respond to WIRED’s request for comment.
